jeremycherfas https://calendar.johncabot.edu/event/Lawrence-Lessig/ should be interesting. No idea whether there is anyone else in here from Italy, but just in case ...

[jgmac1106] "If you take a step back from the technology, if you look at the challenges we face in wider society, and you look at the history of social change, if you step back and just consider for a minute: “how can we decentralise power?”, then “build a better database” feels like a pretty weak answer."

#
GWG [jgmac1106]: What is your estimate of attendance?
#
GWG Or too early to tell?
#
[jgmac1106] 10-15 would be fine, decided to do ConsCanCode, a rentry event to teach ex-offenders to build their website, separately
#
GWG I always like a good crowd
#
GWG We'll see what happens
#
[jgmac1106] but gwg it looks like we wil have another 10-15 at a satellite event in Ghana..finalizing those details today
#
GWG That should be interesting. Certainly unprecedented
#
[jgmac1106] ...well if you and I want to run "How to Get Started on WordPress" all day long I can invite people.....but it would track more neophyte
#
[jgmac1106] I wrote some template emails to invite people to conference, gonna work with my co-organizers to start sending it around
#
GWG I always volunteer to do one of those at an IWC
#
GWG And help out anyone on hack day
#
GWG I always like a mix of neophyte and intermediate
